Nvidia driver not installed?

ParanoidNemo

Hi, I've made today a new installation on an Optimus laptop Intel+Nvidia 1060 6Gb. At first boot I've choose to install Nvidia drivera and rebooted when asked for but on reboot if I type
lsmod | grep nividia
I get no output, so the driver are at least no loaded. How can I check if they are ok and make those load at boot?

Thanks a lot for your work!

This also happened to me. I have an Nvidia RTX 3080TI

Have you found something in regard of that?

@Xenia helped me on discord server. The problem is a esac missing in the Nvidia installer script.
To solve

sudo nano /usr/share/al.getcryst.FirstSetup/vanilla_first_setup/scripts/install-nvidia.sh
go to the line above the if statement and type "esac"
then Ctrl+o to save and Ctrl+x to quit, then run the script again

^ hopefully this issue doesn't occur anymore. For a 30-series card, you should be able to simply sudo pacman -S nvidia for the official driver on an installed system.

For now seems solved for me. The correct script works without problems
